2016-10-07cpu: fix node state for whether it contains CPUTim Chen
In current kernel code, we only call node_set_state(cpu_to_node(cpu), N_CPU) when a cpu is hot plugged. But we do not set the node state for N_CPU when the cpus are brought online during boot. So this could lead to failure when we check to see if a node contains cpu with node_state(node_id, N_CPU). One use case is in the node_reclaime function: /* * Only run node reclaim on the local node or on nodes that do * not * have associated processors. This will favor the local * processor * over remote processors and spread off node memory allocations * as wide as possible. */ if (node_state(pgdat->node_id, N_CPU) && pgdat->node_id != numa_node_id()) return NODE_RECLAIM_NOSCAN; I instrumented the kernel to call this function after boot and it always returns 0 on a x86 desktop machine until I apply the attached patch. int num_cpu_node(void) { int i, nr_cpu_nodes = 0; for_each_node(i) { if (node_state(i, N_CPU)) ++ nr_cpu_nodes; } return nr_cpu_nodes; } Fix this by checking each node for online CPU when we initialize vmstat that's responsible for maintaining node state.

2016-10-07thp, dax: add thp_get_unmapped_area for pmd mappingsToshi Kani
When CONFIG_FS_DAX_PMD is set, DAX supports mmap() using pmd page size. This feature relies on both mmap virtual address and FS block (i.e. physical address) to be aligned by the pmd page size. Users can use mkfs options to specify FS to align block allocations. However, aligning mmap address requires code changes to existing applications for providing a pmd-aligned address to mmap(). For instance, fio with "ioengine=mmap" performs I/Os with mmap() [1]. It calls mmap() with a NULL address, which needs to be changed to provide a pmd-aligned address for testing with DAX pmd mappings. Changing all applications that call mmap() with NULL is undesirable. Add thp_get_unmapped_area(), which can be called by filesystem's get_unmapped_area to align an mmap address by the pmd size for a DAX file. It calls the default handler, mm->get_unmapped_area(), to find a range and then aligns it for a DAX file. The patch is based on Matthew Wilcox's change that allows adding support of the pud page size easily.

2016-10-07mm: mlock: avoid increase mm->locked_vm on mlock() when already ↵Simon Guo
mlock2(,MLOCK_ONFAULT) When one vma was with flag VM_LOCKED|VM_LOCKONFAULT (by invoking mlock2(,MLOCK_ONFAULT)), it can again be populated with mlock() with VM_LOCKED flag only. There is a hole in mlock_fixup() which increase mm->locked_vm twice even the two operations are on the same vma and both with VM_LOCKED flags. The issue can be reproduced by following code: mlock2(p, 1024 * 64, MLOCK_ONFAULT); //VM_LOCKED|VM_LOCKONFAULT mlock(p, 1024 * 64); //VM_LOCKED Then check the increase VmLck field in /proc/pid/status(to 128k). When vma is set with different vm_flags, and the new vm_flags is with VM_LOCKED, it is not necessarily be a "new locked" vma. This patch corrects this bug by prevent mm->locked_vm from increment when old vm_flags is already VM_LOCKED.

2016-10-07mm: mlock: check against vma for actual mlock() sizeSimon Guo
In do_mlock(), the check against locked memory limitation has a hole which will fail following cases at step 3): 1) User has a memory chunk from addressA with 50k, and user mem lock rlimit is 64k. 2) mlock(addressA, 30k) 3) mlock(addressA, 40k) The 3rd step should have been allowed since the 40k request is intersected with the previous 30k at step 2), and the 3rd step is actually for mlock on the extra 10k memory. This patch checks vma to caculate the actual "new" mlock size, if necessary, and ajust the logic to fix this issue.

2016-10-07oom: warn if we go OOM for higher order and compaction is disabledMichal Hocko
Since the lumpy reclaim is gone there is no source of higher order pages if CONFIG_COMPACTION=n except for the order-0 pages reclaim which is unreliable for that purpose to say the least. Hitting an OOM for !costly higher order requests is therefore all not that hard to imagine. We are trying hard to not invoke OOM killer as much as possible but there is simply no reliable way to detect whether more reclaim retries make sense. Disabling COMPACTION is not widespread but it seems that some users might have disable the feature without realizing full consequences (mostly along with disabling THP because compaction used to be THP mainly thing). This patch just adds a note if the OOM killer was triggered by higher order request with compaction disabled. This will help us identifying possible misconfiguration right from the oom report which is easier than to always keep in mind that somebody might have disabled COMPACTION without a good reason.

2016-10-07mm: don't use radix tree writeback tags for pages in swap cacheHuang Ying
File pages use a set of radix tree tags (DIRTY, TOWRITE, WRITEBACK, etc.) to accelerate finding the pages with a specific tag in the radix tree during inode writeback. But for anonymous pages in the swap cache, there is no inode writeback. So there is no need to find the pages with some writeback tags in the radix tree. It is not necessary to touch radix tree writeback tags for pages in the swap cache. Per Rik van Riel's suggestion, a new flag AS_NO_WRITEBACK_TAGS is introduced for address spaces which don't need to update the writeback tags. The flag is set for swap caches. It may be used for DAX file systems, etc. With this patch, the swap out bandwidth improved 22.3% (from ~1.2GB/s to ~1.48GBps) in the vm-scalability swap-w-seq test case with 8 processes. The test is done on a Xeon E5 v3 system. The swap device used is a RAM simulated PMEM (persistent memory) device. The improvement comes from the reduced contention on the swap cache radix tree lock. To test sequential swapping out, the test case uses 8 processes, which sequentially allocate and write to the anonymous pages until RAM and part of the swap device is used up.

2016-10-07mm: introduce arch_reserved_kernel_pages()Srikar Dronamraju
Currently arch specific code can reserve memory blocks but alloc_large_system_hash() may not take it into consideration when sizing the hashes. This can lead to bigger hash than required and lead to no available memory for other purposes. This is specifically true for systems with CONFIG_DEFERRED_STRUCT_PAGE_INIT enabled. One approach to solve this problem would be to walk through the memblock regions and calculate the available memory and base the size of hash system on the available memory. The other approach would be to depend on the architecture to provide the number of pages that are reserved. This change provides hooks to allow the architecture to provide the required info.

2016-10-07oom, oom_reaper: allow to reap mm shared by the kthreadsMichal Hocko
oom reaper was skipped for an mm which is shared with the kernel thread (aka use_mm()). The primary concern was that such a kthread might want to read from the userspace memory and see zero page as a result of the oom reaper action. This is no longer a problem after "mm: make sure that kthreads will not refault oom reaped memory" because any attempt to fault in when the MMF_UNSTABLE is set will result in SIGBUS and so the target user should see an error. This means that we can finally allow oom reaper also to tasks which share their mm with kthreads.

2016-10-07mm: make sure that kthreads will not refault oom reaped memoryMichal Hocko
There are only few use_mm() users in the kernel right now. Most of them write to the target memory but vhost driver relies on copy_from_user/get_user from a kernel thread context. This makes it impossible to reap the memory of an oom victim which shares the mm with the vhost kernel thread because it could see a zero page unexpectedly and theoretically make an incorrect decision visible outside of the killed task context. To quote Michael S. Tsirkin: : Getting an error from __get_user and friends is handled gracefully. : Getting zero instead of a real value will cause userspace : memory corruption. The vhost kernel thread is bound to an open fd of the vhost device which is not tight to the mm owner life cycle in general. The device fd can be inherited or passed over to another process which means that we really have to be careful about unexpected memory corruption because unlike for normal oom victims the result will be visible outside of the oom victim context. Make sure that no kthread context (users of use_mm) can ever see corrupted data because of the oom reaper and hook into the page fault path by checking MMF_UNSTABLE mm flag. __oom_reap_task_mm will set the flag before it starts unmapping the address space while the flag is checked after the page fault has been handled. If the flag is set then SIGBUS is triggered so any g-u-p user will get a error code. Regular tasks do not need this protection because all which share the mm are killed when the mm is reaped and so the corruption will not outlive them. This patch shouldn't have any visible effect at this moment because the OOM killer doesn't invoke oom reaper for tasks with mm shared with kthreads yet.

2016-10-07oom, suspend: fix oom_killer_disable vs. pm suspend properlyMichal Hocko
Commit 74070542099c ("oom, suspend: fix oom_reaper vs. oom_killer_disable race") has workaround an existing race between oom_killer_disable and oom_reaper by adding another round of try_to_freeze_tasks after the oom killer was disabled. This was the easiest thing to do for a late 4.7 fix. Let's fix it properly now. After "oom: keep mm of the killed task available" we no longer have to call exit_oom_victim from the oom reaper because we have stable mm available and hide the oom_reaped mm by MMF_OOM_SKIP flag. So let's remove exit_oom_victim and the race described in the above commit doesn't exist anymore if. Unfortunately this alone is not sufficient for the oom_killer_disable usecase because now we do not have any reliable way to reach exit_oom_victim (the victim might get stuck on a way to exit for an unbounded amount of time). OOM killer can cope with that by checking mm flags and move on to another victim but we cannot do the same for oom_killer_disable as we would lose the guarantee of no further interference of the victim with the rest of the system. What we can do instead is to cap the maximum time the oom_killer_disable waits for victims. The only current user of this function (pm suspend) already has a concept of timeout for back off so we can reuse the same value there. Let's drop set_freezable for the oom_reaper kthread because it is no longer needed as the reaper doesn't wake or thaw any processes.

2016-10-07oom: keep mm of the killed task availableMichal Hocko
oom_reap_task has to call exit_oom_victim in order to make sure that the oom vicim will not block the oom killer for ever. This is, however, opening new problems (e.g oom_killer_disable exclusion - see commit 74070542099c ("oom, suspend: fix oom_reaper vs. oom_killer_disable race")). exit_oom_victim should be only called from the victim's context ideally. One way to achieve this would be to rely on per mm_struct flags. We already have MMF_OOM_REAPED to hide a task from the oom killer since "mm, oom: hide mm which is shared with kthread or global init". The problem is that the exit path: do_exit exit_mm tsk->mm = NULL; mmput __mmput exit_oom_victim doesn't guarantee that exit_oom_victim will get called in a bounded amount of time. At least exit_aio depends on IO which might get blocked due to lack of memory and who knows what else is lurking there. This patch takes a different approach. We remember tsk->mm into the signal_struct and bind it to the signal struct life time for all oom victims. __oom_reap_task_mm as well as oom_scan_process_thread do not have to rely on find_lock_task_mm anymore and they will have a reliable reference to the mm struct. As a result all the oom specific communication inside the OOM killer can be done via tsk->signal->oom_mm. Increasing the signal_struct for something as unlikely as the oom killer is far from ideal but this approach will make the code much more reasonable and long term we even might want to move task->mm into the signal_struct anyway. In the next step we might want to make the oom killer exclusion and access to memory reserves completely independent which would be also nice.

2016-10-07mm,oom_reaper: do not attempt to reap a task twiceTetsuo Handa
"mm, oom_reaper: do not attempt to reap a task twice" tried to give the OOM reaper one more chance to retry using MMF_OOM_NOT_REAPABLE flag. But the usefulness of the flag is rather limited and actually never shown in practice. If the flag is set, it means that the holder of mm->mmap_sem cannot call up_write() due to presumably being blocked at unkillable wait waiting for other thread's memory allocation.

2016-10-07mm,oom_reaper: reduce find_lock_task_mm() usageTetsuo Handa
Patch series "fortify oom killer even more", v2. This patch (of 9): __oom_reap_task() can be simplified a bit if it receives a valid mm from oom_reap_task() which also uses that mm when __oom_reap_task() failed. We can drop one find_lock_task_mm() call and also make the __oom_reap_task() code flow easier to follow. Moreover, this will make later patch in the series easier to review. Pinning mm's mm_count for longer time is not really harmful because this will not pin much memory. This patch doesn't introduce any functional change.

2016-10-07mm/page_ext: support extra space allocation by page_ext userJoonsoo Kim
Until now, if some page_ext users want to use it's own field on page_ext, it should be defined in struct page_ext by hard-coding. It has a problem that wastes memory in following situation. struct page_ext { #ifdef CONFIG_A int a; #endif #ifdef CONFIG_B int b; #endif }; Assume that kernel is built with both CONFIG_A and CONFIG_B. Even if we enable feature A and doesn't enable feature B at runtime, each entry of struct page_ext takes two int rather than one int. It's undesirable result so this patch tries to fix it. To solve above problem, this patch implements to support extra space allocation at runtime. When need() callback returns true, it's extra memory requirement is summed to entry size of page_ext. Also, offset for each user's extra memory space is returned. With this offset, user can use this extra space and there is no need to define needed field on page_ext by hard-coding. This patch only implements an infrastructure. Following patch will use it for page_owner which is only user having it's own fields on page_ext.

2016-10-07mm, vmscan: get rid of throttle_vm_writeoutMichal Hocko
throttle_vm_writeout() was introduced back in 2005 to fix OOMs caused by excessive pageout activity during the reclaim. Too many pages could be put under writeback therefore LRUs would be full of unreclaimable pages until the IO completes and in turn the OOM killer could be invoked. There have been some important changes introduced since then in the reclaim path though. Writers are throttled by balance_dirty_pages when initiating the buffered IO and later during the memory pressure, the direct reclaim is throttled by wait_iff_congested if the node is considered congested by dirty pages on LRUs and the underlying bdi is congested by the queued IO. The kswapd is throttled as well if it encounters pages marked for immediate reclaim or under writeback which signals that that there are too many pages under writeback already. Finally should_reclaim_retry does congestion_wait if the reclaim cannot make any progress and there are too many dirty/writeback pages. Another important aspect is that we do not issue any IO from the direct reclaim context anymore. In a heavy parallel load this could queue a lot of IO which would be very scattered and thus unefficient which would just make the problem worse. This three mechanisms should throttle and keep the amount of IO in a steady state even under heavy IO and memory pressure so yet another throttling point doesn't really seem helpful. Quite contrary, Mikulas Patocka has reported that swap backed by dm-crypt doesn't work properly because the swapout IO cannot make sufficient progress as the writeout path depends on dm_crypt worker which has to allocate memory to perform the encryption. In order to guarantee a forward progress it relies on the mempool allocator. mempool_alloc(), however, prefers to use the underlying (usually page) allocator before it grabs objects from the pool. Such an allocation can dive into the memory reclaim and consequently to throttle_vm_writeout. If there are too many dirty or pages under writeback it will get throttled even though it is in fact a flusher to clear pending pages. kworker/u4:0 D ffff88003df7f438 10488 6 2 0x00000000 Workqueue: kcryptd kcryptd_crypt [dm_crypt] Call Trace: schedule+0x3c/0x90 schedule_timeout+0x1d8/0x360 io_schedule_timeout+0xa4/0x110 congestion_wait+0x86/0x1f0 throttle_vm_writeout+0x44/0xd0 shrink_zone_memcg+0x613/0x720 shrink_zone+0xe0/0x300 do_try_to_free_pages+0x1ad/0x450 try_to_free_pages+0xef/0x300 __alloc_pages_nodemask+0x879/0x1210 alloc_pages_current+0xa1/0x1f0 new_slab+0x2d7/0x6a0 ___slab_alloc+0x3fb/0x5c0 __slab_alloc+0x51/0x90 kmem_cache_alloc+0x27b/0x310 mempool_alloc_slab+0x1d/0x30 mempool_alloc+0x91/0x230 bio_alloc_bioset+0xbd/0x260 kcryptd_crypt+0x114/0x3b0 [dm_crypt] Let's just drop throttle_vm_writeout altogether. It is not very much helpful anymore. I have tried to test a potential writeback IO runaway similar to the one described in the original patch which has introduced that [1]. Small virtual machine (512MB RAM, 4 CPUs, 2G of swap space and disk image on a rather slow NFS in a sync mode on the host) with 8 parallel writers each writing 1G worth of data. As soon as the pagecache fills up and the direct reclaim hits then I start anon memory consumer in a loop (allocating 300M and exiting after populating it) in the background to make the memory pressure even stronger as well as to disrupt the steady state for the IO. The direct reclaim is throttled because of the congestion as well as kswapd hitting congestion_wait due to nr_immediate but throttle_vm_writeout doesn't ever trigger the sleep throughout the test. Dirty+writeback are close to nr_dirty_threshold with some fluctuations caused by the anon consumer.

2016-10-07mm: fix set pageblock migratetype in deferred struct page initXishi Qiu
On x86_64 MAX_ORDER_NR_PAGES is usually 4M, and a pageblock is usually 2M, so we only set one pageblock's migratetype in deferred_free_range() if pfn is aligned to MAX_ORDER_NR_PAGES. That means it causes uninitialized migratetype blocks, you can see from "cat /proc/pagetypeinfo", almost half blocks are Unmovable. Also we missed freeing the last block in deferred_init_memmap(), it causes memory leak.

2016-10-07mm, vmscan: make compaction_ready() more accurate and readableVlastimil Babka
The compaction_ready() is used during direct reclaim for costly order allocations to skip reclaim for zones where compaction should be attempted instead. It's combining the standard compaction_suitable() check with its own watermark check based on high watermark with extra gap, and the result is confusing at best. This patch attempts to better structure and document the checks involved. First, compaction_suitable() can determine that the allocation should either succeed already, or that compaction doesn't have enough free pages to proceed. The third possibility is that compaction has enough free pages, but we still decide to reclaim first - unless we are already above the high watermark with gap. This does not mean that the reclaim will actually reach this watermark during single attempt, this is rather an over-reclaim protection. So document the code as such. The check for compaction_deferred() is removed completely, as it in fact had no proper role here. The result after this patch is mainly a less confusing code. We also skip some over-reclaim in cases where the allocation should already succed.

2016-10-07mm, compaction: require only min watermarks for non-costly ordersVlastimil Babka
The __compaction_suitable() function checks the low watermark plus a compact_gap() gap to decide if there's enough free memory to perform compaction. Then __isolate_free_page uses low watermark check to decide if particular free page can be isolated. In the latter case, using low watermark is needlessly pessimistic, as the free page isolations are only temporary. For __compaction_suitable() the higher watermark makes sense for high-order allocations where more freepages increase the chance of success, and we can typically fail with some order-0 fallback when the system is struggling to reach that watermark. But for low-order allocation, forming the page should not be that hard. So using low watermark here might just prevent compaction from even trying, and eventually lead to OOM killer even if we are above min watermarks. So after this patch, we use min watermark for non-costly orders in __compaction_suitable(), and for all orders in __isolate_free_page().

2016-10-07mm, compaction: use proper alloc_flags in __compaction_suitable()Vlastimil Babka
The __compaction_suitable() function checks the low watermark plus a compact_gap() gap to decide if there's enough free memory to perform compaction. This check uses direct compactor's alloc_flags, but that's wrong, since these flags are not applicable for freepage isolation. For example, alloc_flags may indicate access to memory reserves, making compaction proceed, and then fail watermark check during the isolation. A similar problem exists for ALLOC_CMA, which may be part of alloc_flags, but not during freepage isolation. In this case however it makes sense to use ALLOC_CMA both in __compaction_suitable() and __isolate_free_page(), since there's actually nothing preventing the freepage scanner to isolate from CMA pageblocks, with the assumption that a page that could be migrated once by compaction can be migrated also later by CMA allocation. Thus we should count pages in CMA pageblocks when considering compaction suitability and when isolating freepages. To sum up, this patch should remove some false positives from __compaction_suitable(), and allow compaction to proceed when free pages required for compaction reside in the CMA pageblocks.

2016-10-07mm, compaction: create compact_gap wrapperVlastimil Babka

2016-10-07mm, compaction: use correct watermark when checking compaction successVlastimil Babka
The __compact_finished() function uses low watermark in a check that has to pass if the direct compaction is to finish and allocation should succeed. This is too pessimistic, as the allocation will typically use min watermark. It may happen that during compaction, we drop below the low watermark (due to parallel activity), but still form the target high-order page. By checking against low watermark, we might needlessly continue compaction. Similarly, __compaction_suitable() uses low watermark in a check whether allocation can succeed without compaction. Again, this is unnecessarily pessimistic. After this patch, these check will use direct compactor's alloc_flags to determine the watermark, which is effectively the min watermark.

2016-10-07mm, compaction: add the ultimate direct compaction priorityVlastimil Babka
During reclaim/compaction loop, it's desirable to get a final answer from unsuccessful compaction so we can either fail the allocation or invoke the OOM killer. However, heuristics such as deferred compaction or pageblock skip bits can cause compaction to skip parts or whole zones and lead to premature OOM's, failures or excessive reclaim/compaction retries. To remedy this, we introduce a new direct compaction priority called COMPACT_PRIO_SYNC_FULL, which instructs direct compaction to: - ignore deferred compaction status for a zone - ignore pageblock skip hints - ignore cached scanner positions and scan the whole zone The new priority should get eventually picked up by should_compact_retry() and this should improve success rates for costly allocations using __GFP_REPEAT, such as hugetlbfs allocations, and reduce some corner-case OOM's for non-costly allocations.

2016-10-07mm, compaction: don't recheck watermarks after COMPACT_SUCCESSVlastimil Babka
Joonsoo has reminded me that in a later patch changing watermark checks throughout compaction I forgot to update checks in try_to_compact_pages() and compactd_do_work(). Closer inspection however shows that they are redundant now in the success case, because compact_zone() now reliably reports this with COMPACT_SUCCESS. So effectively the checks just repeat (a subset) of checks that have just passed. So instead of checking watermarks again, just test the return value. Note it's also possible that compaction would declare failure e.g. because its find_suitable_fallback() is more strict than simple watermark check, and then the watermark check we are removing would then still succeed. After this patch this is not possible and it's arguably better, because for long-term fragmentation avoidance we should rather try a different zone than allocate with the unsuitable fallback. If compaction of all zones fail and the allocation is important enough, it will retry and succeed anyway. Also remove the stray "bool success" variable from kcompactd_do_work().

2016-10-07mm, compaction: rename COMPACT_PARTIAL to COMPACT_SUCCESSVlastimil Babka
COMPACT_PARTIAL has historically meant that compaction returned after doing some work without fully compacting a zone. It however didn't distinguish if compaction terminated because it succeeded in creating the requested high-order page. This has changed recently and now we only return COMPACT_PARTIAL when compaction thinks it succeeded, or the high-order watermark check in compaction_suitable() passes and no compaction needs to be done. So at this point we can make the return value clearer by renaming it to COMPACT_SUCCESS. The next patch will remove some redundant tests for success where compaction just returned COMPACT_SUCCESS.

2016-10-07mm, compaction: make whole_zone flag ignore cached scanner positionsVlastimil Babka
Patch series "make direct compaction more deterministic") This is mostly a followup to Michal's oom detection rework, which highlighted the need for direct compaction to provide better feedback in reclaim/compaction loop, so that it can reliably recognize when compaction cannot make further progress, and allocation should invoke OOM killer or fail. We've discussed this at LSF/MM [1] where I proposed expanding the async/sync migration mode used in compaction to more general "priorities". This patchset adds one new priority that just overrides all the heuristics and makes compaction fully scan all zones. I don't currently think that we need more fine-grained priorities, but we'll see. Other than that there's some smaller fixes and cleanups, mainly related to the THP-specific hacks. I've tested this with stress-highalloc in GFP_KERNEL order-4 and THP-like order-9 scenarios. There's some improvement for compaction stats for the order-4, which is likely due to the better watermarks handling. In the previous version I reported mostly noise wrt compaction stats, and decreased direct reclaim - now the reclaim is without difference. I believe this is due to the less aggressive compaction priority increase in patch 6. "before" is a mmotm tree prior to 4.7 release plus the first part of the series that was sent and merged separately before after order-4: Compaction stalls 27216 30759 Compaction success 19598 25475 Compaction failures 7617 5283 Page migrate success 370510 464919 Page migrate failure 25712 27987 Compaction pages isolated 849601 1041581 Compaction migrate scanned 143146541 101084990 Compaction free scanned 208355124 144863510 Compaction cost 1403 1210 order-9: Compaction stalls 7311 7401 Compaction success 1634 1683 Compaction failures 5677 5718 Page migrate success 194657 183988 Page migrate failure 4753 4170 Compaction pages isolated 498790 456130 Compaction migrate scanned 565371 524174 Compaction free scanned 4230296 4250744 Compaction cost 215 203 [1] https://lwn.net/Articles/684611/ This patch (of 11): A recent patch has added whole_zone flag that compaction sets when scanning starts from the zone boundary, in order to report that zone has been fully scanned in one attempt. For allocations that want to try really hard or cannot fail, we will want to introduce a mode where scanning whole zone is guaranteed regardless of the cached positions. This patch reuses the whole_zone flag in a way that if it's already passed true to compaction, the cached scanner positions are ignored. Employing this flag during reclaim/compaction loop will be done in the next patch. This patch however converts compaction invoked from userspace via procfs to use this flag. Before this patch, the cached positions were first reset to zone boundaries and then read back from struct zone, so there was a window where a parallel compaction could replace the reset values, making the manual compaction less effective. Using the flag instead of performing reset is more robust.

2016-10-07mm: oom: deduplicate victim selection code for memcg and global oomVladimir Davydov
When selecting an oom victim, we use the same heuristic for both memory cgroup and global oom. The only difference is the scope of tasks to select the victim from. So we could just export an iterator over all memcg tasks and keep all oom related logic in oom_kill.c, but instead we duplicate pieces of it in memcontrol.c reusing some initially private functions of oom_kill.c in order to not duplicate all of it. That looks ugly and error prone, because any modification of select_bad_process should also be propagated to mem_cgroup_out_of_memory. Let's rework this as follows: keep all oom heuristic related code private to oom_kill.c and make oom_kill.c use exported memcg functions when it's really necessary (like in case of iterating over memcg tasks).

Commit 22f2ac51b6d6 ("mm: workingset: fix crash in shadow node shrinker caused by replace_page_cache_page()") switched replace_page_cache() from raw radix tree operations to page_cache_tree_insert() but didn't take into account that the latter function, unlike the raw radix tree op, handles mapping->nrpages. As a result, that counter is bumped for each page replacement rather than balanced out even. The mapping->nrpages counter is used to skip needless radix tree walks when invalidating, truncating, syncing inodes without pages, as well as statistics for userspace. Since the error is positive, we'll do more page cache tree walks than necessary; we won't miss a necessary one. And we'll report more buffer pages to userspace than there are. The error is limited to fuse inodes.

The shrinker needs to know when radix tree nodes contain only shadow entries, no pages, so node->count is split in half to count shadows in the upper bits and pages in the lower bits. Unfortunately, the radix tree implementation doesn't know of this and assumes all entries are in node->count. When there is a shadow entry directly in root->rnode and the tree is later extended, the radix tree implementation will copy that entry into the new node and and bump its node->count, i.e. increases the page count bits. Once the shadow gets removed and we subtract from the upper counter, node->count underflows and triggers the warning. Afterwards, without node->count reaching 0 again, the radix tree node is leaked. Limit shadow entries to when we have actual radix tree nodes and can count them properly. That means we lose the ability to detect refaults from files that had only the first page faulted in at eviction time.
